Near the start ofMonster Hunter Wilds, you get asked to pick your weapon.
Like everything inMonster Hunter, this selection is accompanied by a vast array of text.
With ‘love’ not an option as a weapon of choice, I opted for the dual blades instead.
I looked at this selection of deadly damagers sort of like you woulda class system in any other RPG.
It seemed like a good way to play a rogue.
And for someone better at the game, maybe it would be.
But it didn’t seem like I was doing much.
Then again, fights in Monster Hunter are long, and your starting weapons are weak.
Still, I was afraidthe game’s hype was set to pass me by.
Then I got out a big gun, and all was right in the world.
What I needed for my second was not an alternative version of the same, but something completely different.
This is where the gun came in.
you could see my approach in my initial weapon choice - dual blades are the choice of the foolhardy.
You will never get to do this in Monster Hunter.
The fun is in the hunt, which is why each battle takes an age.
The unbridled force of nature runs wild and relentless, with environments transforming drastically from one moment to the next. This is a story of monsters and humans and their struggles to live in harmony in a world of duality.Fulfill your duty as a Hunter by tracking and defeating powerful monsters and forging strong new weapons and armor from the materials you harvest from your hunt as you uncover the connection between the people of the Forbidden Lands and the locales they inhabit.The ultimate hunting experience awaits you in Monster Hunter Wilds.
A few times of that, and the last step stopped happening.
In Wilds, I’m embracing the fact I’m not supposed to beat these things.
The fact I can stay aliveisthe victory.
Overcoming them is a miracle.
It has changed my approach to the game, encouraging caution, distance.
Speak softly and carry a big gun.

I’m almost certainly not playing the game in a way that allows me to know.
